Recipe Tips

Preparation

graham cracker crust

Place a rack in middle of oven and preheat to 325°. Pulse graham crackers in a food processor until very fine crumbs form (you should have about 2 cups). Add raw sugar, flour, and salt and pulse to combine. Add butter and pulse until mixture is the consistency of wet sand.

Transfer mixture to a 9” pie dish. Using a measuring cup, press firmly onto bottom and up sides of dish. Place pie dish on a rimmed baking sheet and bake crust, rotating halfway through, until dry and set, 20–25 minutes. Transfer pie dish to a wire rack and let crust cool.

DO AHEAD: Crust can be baked 1 day ahead. Store wrapped tightly at room temperature.
